***Official City Vs Blackburn Rovers***

[Saul Goodman]

Strong lineup but hopefully the left-foot duo at the back will be able to perform well together.

I'd like to see Lopes on for a half or 25-30 and Aguero for 15-20.

Please please let Micah get out of this unscathed

[Slim]

More than happy with the team but it's not close to our strongest.We have a 100% change in the back 5 for starters.Looking forward to a good match and some goals but we BBurn will park the bus so it will be interesting to see how we break that down without our best 3 for unlocking defences. Fernandinho for MotM

By strongest I guess I meant a team comprised of 100% proven players who are a part of the squad... no testing out youngsters (as you would in a friendly) until the result is secure

Have we started any kids this season?

Rusnak or Lopes maybe?

If we win, the team selection was spot on. If we go out mistakes will have been made.

4-0

If this side can't beat Blackburn at home then we won't be able to win this cup because a lot of this team will feature heavily and we'll face harder than this before the final.

Jimmy is captain.

[Dubciteh]

Milner captain interesting, would of thought Micah or lescott.

[Im_Spartacus]

Dean Ashton and Tony jones commentating in the Middle East. That's different

[Dubciteh]

Those balls are shit, don't like the colour at all!

[Slim]

oh COME ON EDIN!

gotta do better than that with a free header.

[bigblue]

gotta get that on target at the very least if Dzeko wants to start on a regular basis. early in the game but pretty poor

[PaulieIrish]

that Taylor fella is the head off Ronan Keating from Boyzone...

For some reason I remember him playing for old ham when they knocked us out a few years ago. Might go investigate that one.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Dull start and worried about our creativity, but should be able to put on a functional display good enough to see then off.

C'mon Dzeko hit target

Nope but some team we had that day!

Hope the drainage is good

[Crossie]

Andy Townsend is so full of shit. It fools the neutrals but when he talks about your own club you hear the speculative drivel that he patches together from some recent stats

Ahh Ronald Waterrus!

[Cit.revenge]

We need Aguero here there is nobody to create and they cover wings

[CHOPPERmcfc]

What's going on with Frazier Campbell's knashers???

[CHOPPERmcfc]

By the way, good to see a lack of gloves on the pitch. If Anelka was still up front for us he'd probably be running about with Steve McClarens umbrella
